QiD lets you prove who you are once, see every organization that holds your data, control what they can do with it, and revoke access with a tap.
Every identity disclosure authorized with a single biometric gesture — the same motion as unlocking your phone. Consent + authorization + receipt in one gesture. No forms, no redirects, no "Accept All" dark patterns.
An interactive visualization of every organization that holds your data. What they hold, when you shared it, what purpose they stated. Next to each relationship: a "Revoke Access" button that works instantly. No other identity platform shows users their complete identity footprint with real-time revocation.
Every identity disclosure generates a signed evidence receipt: who requested, what was shared, for what purpose, and a timestamp. Immutable. Auditable. The receipt protects both sides.
One universal star system. ⭐ Recognized. ⭐⭐ Verified (government ID + liveness — the portable credential threshold). ⭐⭐⭐ Proven (earned through sustained activity). The same star means the same thing at a fan club and a bank.
Verify for Chelsea FC → use it at Barclays. Verify for a creator → use it at a bank, marketplace, or any service that accepts QiD. The average adult verifies their identity 10-15 times per year. QiD turns that into one verification and unlimited taps.
157M verified users but a walled garden — credentials only work inside their network. No user-facing ledger, no selective disclosure, no creator communities, no evidence receipts.
Biometric identity for physical access (airports). No digital portability, no consumer data ledger, no consent management, no fan/audience layer.
Best developer DX in market — but authentication only, not identity. No verified credentials, no audience proof, no evidence receipts, no selective disclosure.
QiD is exploring replacing periodic liveness checks with passkey authentication. Every passkey login with userVerification: required demands a biometric — proving a live human is present. The initial identity proofing (government ID at ⭐⭐) binds the legal identity. Every subsequent passkey login confirms that person is present. Result: liveness at every login, zero friction, dramatically richer credential freshness data.
Periodic · High friction · User resents it
Liveness verified every 90 days. Between checks, no signal. Re-verification feels punitive.
Continuous · Zero friction · User loves it
Liveness at every login — potentially daily. The biometric tap feels like unlocking a phone, not completing a compliance form.
Each persona class has a ranked stack — ordered by the intensity of the need. These drive UX design, pitch scripts, and the product roadmap.
ID.me is the most prominent verified-identity-to-brand-deals platform. Their model validates the core thesis: verify once, create a portable credential, monetize the trust layer by charging brands for access to verified communities.
The 43% higher AOV and 5.4× ROI that ID.me demonstrated for verified communities will transfer to the creator economy context. ID.me verified static affinity groups (military, students). Marquee verifies dynamic creator audiences. The verification mechanism is the same (government ID + liveness). The brand value is the same (confirmed real humans with verified demographics). The audience type is different (creator fans vs. institutional affiliations). This assumption must be validated through Marquee's first brand campaign pilot — a $50K test where results are measured against the brand's existing benchmark.
ID.me credentials only work within their network. Marquee credentials are portable — verify for a creator, use at a bank.
ID.me has no user-facing data ledger. Marquee has The Map — see everything, revoke anything.
ID.me communities are static (military, student). Marquee communities are dynamic, personal, emotionally driven — built around creators.
Marquee adds community maturation metrics that show audience trajectory — freshness, cross-context usage, tier depth. ID.me has no equivalent.
The optimal launch unit is a cluster of 5 YouTube creators with overlapping fan bases — identified by BentPixels data, launched together. Scored 9/10 on ease of GTM, risk elimination, speed, and certainty.
If Creators A and B share 40% audience overlap, a fan who verifies for Creator A taps into Creator B's fan club instantly — already verified. The portable credential moment happens in the first session.
Five phone calls, not 500. One BentPixels account manager. One week to onboard. Content gated in week two.
These creators already appear in each other's content. The cross-promotion is authentic. The content collaboration IS the marketing.
BentPixels already has brand relationships. A cluster represents combined verified audience data no single creator provides.
If Cluster #1 works, copy-paste to #2, #3, #4. Each cluster is an independent experiment. Risk is isolated, learning compounds.
BentPixels identifies 5 creators with 30%+ mutual overlap, combined 1M+ unique audience, 85%+ authenticity. Personal outreach with founding terms.
All 5 verify (⭐⭐). Each gates 5-10 pieces of exclusive content. BentPixels provides content strategy.
All 5 announce simultaneously. Cross-promotion is natural. Total addressable: 1M-3M fans.
Target: 10K-20K verified fans. Fans who verify for one creator discover instant access to the other four.
BentPixels brand team pitches verified audience data. Target: 2-3 deals. Campaign results = case study for Cluster #2.
White-glove. Document everything. Case study recruits every subsequent cluster.
Test different genres, audience sizes. Share Cluster #1 case study as recruitment tool.
Semi-automated onboarding. BentPixels pipeline scores next-best cluster. Creator referrals begin.
New clusters launch to partially pre-verified audiences (15-25% already verified). Brand demand outpaces supply. Self-serve applications begin.
